What is the name of your state? Texas


If one is on probation in the state of texas, and is arrested and picks up a misdemeanor, then defaults on court, where a warrant is then issued, and the offender stops reporting to probation, what are the possible consequences? Will the offender, if caught , only do time on a misdemeanor/probation violation until the end of his/her probation period? what consequences if the offender is a 2 time convicted felon and picks up a misdemeanor case, defaults on court and stops reporting?

Thanks

The 'consequences' of violating probation is to have the original sentence reinstated.... and incarceration. Probation is a PRIVILEDGE.... that can be taken away if abused.

Without playing '100 questions', see above.
